A similar giltwood carved table, by the famous cabinetmaker Guillaume Grohé, with guilloche-carved stretchers and a twin-handled vase finial, dating to the mid-nineteenth century, is today in the Château de Chantilly, former home of the French King's son the Duc d'Aumale who was considered one of France's most important collectors and tastemakers.
